To Make National Pizza Day Healthier, CNN Encourages Readers to Try Snorting Vegetables

ATLANTA, GA - Acknowledging that pizza is not the healthiest food choice, CNN encouraged readers to make National Pizza Day healthier by trying to snort some vegetables.

"Look, we get it. Pizza is delicious and addictive," said CNN Chief Nutrition Correspondent Dr. Jack Sneider. "But as you celebrate this wonderfully taste-worthy holiday, why not have a side of carrots to snort along with you? Or even some spinach, bell peppers - shoot, some diced tomatoes could give you that same high as snorting a line of parmesan. Just give it a try. Your body will thank you."

In addition to snorting vegetables, CNN offered other tips for making National Pizza Day a bit healthier, such as wrapping each bite of pizza in a kale leaf, or washing down every slice with a glass of unsweetened almond milk. "We know you might be celebrating with a cold beer, but have you tried a nice, cold, refreshing glass of water instead?" Sneider added.

At publishing time, CNN had also encouraged readers to make their pizza as bland and unappetizing as possible before consuming it.
